Two years ago, we exposed how one quarter of UK MPs had accepted funding from the pro-Israel lobby. Today, the government publishes an independent review into "foreign financial influence" in UK politics. It does not mention Israel once.

The best read here is: * Trump folded before markets open * Meaning the situation in Iran is worse than the US is letting on in general I would assume: * Iran unswayed by bluff * No plan to open Hormuz * US knows Israel plans to continue escalations * Trump being squeezed by markets * Gives insiders relief and more grift profit * We see Israel continue strikes * Strait outflows still low this week * Closer we get to Friday close, the more strikes escalate again * In 1-2 weeks when US troop deployments start arriving, they put boots on the ground starting in Kharg with large US losses. If no off ramp prior, that’s when the pain and scale of this war starts to become realized by US news (and markets) who have become overly trusting of a President who lies through his teeth.

Senator Graham on invading Iran’s Kharg Island: We did Iwo Jima, we can do this. NOTE: In the Battle of Iwo Jima during World War II, U.S. forces suffered approximately 26,000 total casualties over 36 days of fighting.
